Why our leaders are out arguing about what to call people who are in this country illegally. Undocumentated aliens or unregistered aliens or illegal citizens - say what??? Someone tell me what an illegal ?citizen? is??
Or they are for giving credit cards and driver's licenses to these folks. Or they are trying to find ways to put border patrol agents in jail for doing what they are trained to do that is stop illegal drugs from entering the country, even if they are carried in by an "illegal alien" who is under "government protection--------HUH???
Just this girl's musings!
